'Big girl Erin' has been one of her favorite phrases lately, and we agree, she's definetely not a baby anymore. Her language has really taken off this month. She speaks in 2-4 word phrases regularly now. They usually are not ambiguous... 'move, dada' or 'sit gaga'. She gets a kick out of watching a 'bee-yo' (video) on the computer, including celebrities singing ABC's on Sesame Street or a home video of Erin going down the slide in grandma's basement. She's happy filling in the next letter if we stop singing the ABC song abruptly. My favorite new word of hers was a long time coming, her name! It sounds like 'Ennh' as the R is still difficult, but this has largely replaced pointing at her chest when she wants something.
Tea parties are a big hit and always require an audience of stuffed animals. If an animal falls over we hear a frustrated 'sit up, sit up!'
Fran is back on call this month and working a lot. I finished a week of night shifts in the ER and had this weekend off, so got to spend time with Erin while I switched my biologic clock back to being up in the daytime. As usual, Grandma and Grandpa Prekker have been a huge help. We're eagerly awaiting an extended visit from Grandma Beth who gets in tomorrow evening.
